Getting There From Ireland
The fastest and most cost-effective way of getting to France from Ireland is by plane. There are good deals out of the regional airports as well as out of Dublin to Paris. It is also possible to fly direct from Belfast, but there are fewer options and the costs are generally much higher. Your best bet is to get a flight into Paris, from where you can make connections to France's regional airports, or book a flight to London or Amsterdam and travel on to France from there. It is also possible to sail to northern France from Cork and Rosslare, though the journey time is long (around 15hr) and the costs are not significantly lower than the deals offered by the airlines that fly out of western Ireland; however, if you do need to take your car, and northern France is your main destination, then sailing - especially for groups of two or more - could prove to be a cheaper and more convenient option
